2. there is no way it will ever be repealed

Big Insurance will not let it happen. There will probably be another hundred or so phony votes to repeal, but it will never go away. The same people who paid billions to get it passed (Big Insurance, PHARMA) can use part of their hundreds of millions in annual profits to bribe the legislators. The "repeal" votes are theater - just like the negotiations in 2009-2010. I am proud to say I am paying 1/4 of my annual take-home pay in premiums, co-pays, deductibles, co-insurance, and whatever else the Act legalized - just like a good American should.
